SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., April 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Matrix
Clinical Solutions, a Matrix Medical Network® (Matrix)
business, today announced two ModivCare Inc. ("ModivCare"),
formerly LogistiCare, sites have been granted certification
through ongoing monitoring of the safety and health of employees to
ensure compliance within the Center of Disease Control's (CDC)
evolving COVID-19 guidelines. ModivCare, a technology-enabled
healthcare services company that provides a suite of integrated
supportive care solutions focused on improving patient outcomes,
followed this multi-disciplinary safety verification program to
decrease the risk of COVID-19 transmission while establishing and
sustaining healthy, safe and productive workplaces.
Through Matrix's risk assessment and COVID-19 experience and the
deep clinical expertise of Cleveland Clinic, the certification
program assesses people, processes and structure to ensure
workplace safety through:
- On-site assessments that are based on the latest guidelines
from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Occupational Safety and
Health Administration (OSHA) and state regulations
- Best-in-class protocols based on the well-established clinical
and industry expertise of Cleveland Clinic and Matrix
- Actionable recommendations to address identified health and
safety gaps
- Official certification following alignment to certification
standards
- Ongoing updates on evolving COVID-19 guidance and
regulations
Matrix provided thought leadership in epidemiological and
behavioral health best practices, tailored educational and training
materials and on-going intelligence reports at select ModivCare
facilities in Arizona,
Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Maine, Michigan, Missouri, New
Jersey, New York,
Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South
Carolina, Texas,
Virginia and West Virginia. The sites in Oklahoma and Virginia have been presented with the safety
verified certification seal and it is anticipated that the
additional sites will be certified in the coming weeks.
"Ensuring safety verification of our worksites offers a sense of
much needed security during these unprecedented times, especially
when it comes to the safety of our team members," said ModivCare
Chief Compliance Officer, Jody
Kepler. "Because our business offers ride and call center
management as well as transportation provider network development,
we're thankful for Matrix and their actionable solutions. With
their help, we can continue to use our essential business to meet
the needs of our community without sacrificing the well-being of
our hard-working team members."
Upon certification, ModivCare sites receive a formal safety
verification seal that can be displayed to validate worksite
health, safety and productivity for employees, customers, and other
stakeholders. As a part of the program, Matrix will provide ongoing
monitoring and updates on evolving safety guidelines.
According to a national poll by Eagle Hill
Consulting,1 50% of U.S. employees say they are worried
about exposure to COVID-19 when going back into the office — a
statistic that makes Matrix even more propelled to foster safe,
ergonomic and intuitive work environments for businesses all around
the country.
"An employee deserves to feel safe in their workplace," said
Matrix Clinical Solutions Chief Medical Officer Daniel Meltzer, M.D., MPH, FACEP. "We look
forward to our continued partnership with ModivCare and are
committed to the ongoing safety and health of its employees by
ensuring each worksite is continually monitored and verified
against the latest COVID-19 CDC guidelines."
